A CFL source said Wednesday the veteran linebacker has agreed to terms on a contract with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats.

The six-foot, 227-pound American has spent the last four seasons with the Calgary Stampeders.

Thurman, 28, was slated to become a free agent Tuesday but pending free agents have been able to speak with teams since Sunday as per the league’s negotiating window.
